Most Americans think the government is holding back information when it comes to aliens, according to a NewsNation/Decision Desk HQ poll released Tuesday.
Over 63% of those surveyed believe the U.S. government has more information about extraterrestrial life than has been shared publicly. Just 17% of respondents don’t think that’s the case.
There was almost no difference across the political spectrum. Most Democrats (62%), independents (65%) and Republicans (64%) think the government has more info. Younger respondents between the ages of 18 to 34 were the most likely to think so (69%).
In this national study—which is the first to thoroughlyexamine faculty evaluations, explanations, and experiences regarding UAP of which theauthors are aware—tenured and tenure-track faculty across 14 disciplines at 144 majorresearch universities (N = 1460) participated in a survey.

one in ten Americans report that they have seen an unidentified flying object (UFO), unchanged over time. Four times as many Americans (42%) believe in UFOs. When it comes to other unexplainable phenomena, about three in ten (28%) report that, at some point, they have woken up from sleep with a sense of a strange presence in the room, and one in four (25%) have seen or believed themselves to have been in the presence of a ghost. Beyond that experience, two in five (39%) believe in ghosts.
